Bridge Ink

Submitting your work

Bridge Ink welcomes submissions from writers and artists at all stages of their careers, with a particular interest in work that engages with themes of connection, migration, and cross-cultural experience. Before submitting, familiarize yourself with recent anthologies or issues to understand the aesthetic range. They accept simultaneous submissions but ask for prompt notification of acceptance elsewhere. Reading periods are typically announced via their website and newsletter; unsolicited submissions outside these windows are generally not considered. Include a brief cover letter that contextualizes your work within the organization's mission, and allow up to three months for a response.

Our editors yearn to see something different, to learn from a piece of work, or to discover a new point of view. We are looking for young, honest voices daring enough to share those stories. How can a poem reveal an observation, emotion, or experience in a new or unique way? How can a story change a reader’s way of thinking? We want stories that open our minds to new possibilities.
